The correct answer to this open question is the following.

I am going to pick one of the most famous spirituals from the Civil war era. This is a song called "Go Down Moses."

One of the lines says: "Oppressed so hard they could not stand

Let my people go!"

It is a beautiful song that was one of the favorites of black soldiers in the Union Army. It is like a form of prayer-song, where black people asked help to God. The meaning of the song is that God allows its people to be free from the oppressor.

Later, in the 1920s, Jazz singer Loui Amstrong sang the song and made it more popular in different audiences.

Other famous spirituals form the Civil War era were "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen" and "Free at Last."

wordsworth tends to see nature as 'out there'; a presence which surrounds humans, and contributes to human life, but is different from humans. if you look at a typical wordsworth poem (there was a boy, ye knew him well ye rocks) - wordsworth talks about nature as something that needs to be learned about and understood, nature is different from us.  

if you look at a byron poem (the isles of greece is a good one) - byron looks at nature mainly for what it already means to man. wordsworth will look at a landscape and see the mountains, trees, valleys, and rivers as almost spiritual presences - wordsworth wants to get to know nature.  

byron will look at the same landscape and he will want to know who lives there, what are the villages? are there any farms or mines, is there some history?  

wordsworth looks at nature for what it is; byron is forever asking what it means.  

wordsworth thinks that humans are part of nature; byron thinks that nature is part of being human
